Ice36 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 With the new JM 327 coming out, all the feedback has been interesting. But my thought is what would you build if you could to make the best USPSA\IPSC revolver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBurgess Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 (edited) I really like the 627 v comp so I would probably build a 929 with a similar barrel profile to that. Edited May 22 by MikeBurgess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Sahlberg Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 The original 627 8 shot 5" bbl was S&Ws best gun. It shoots so many different cases well and full moon clips make reloading a breeze! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate89 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 No idea on the "best," but I would like to see a basic 9mm like the 627 I have, steel frame and cylinder, a shorter barrel with no compensator, and a shorter barrel than the current 929. I'd like to think it would bring the price down to around $1,000 street price like I've seen the 627s at local shops going for. I think having a matching set of 8 shot guns in 357 and 9mm would be excellent, and I would buy one right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Sahlberg Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Love your idea but $1000 is just a 33% down payment now on the new S&W 327, only in 9MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have worked out the ammo issue and just made specialized ammo and kept it seperate from my 9mm auto... I mean 38 short is special,,, Coulda saved all my purple brass for revolver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Phil Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) I use everything the same (reloading setup including crimp), case, primer and powder for all of my 9mm. 929 I use the .357 0r .358 bullet. They get dumped into separate buckets. The larger bullets don't like my PCC much. I actually like a bit more weight out front, but with the 'no comp' end.

I had a vision of what I wanted, and after I paid a second guy to fix what the first guy ####ed up, it came true. I used a Bowen front sight base, and an SDM Super Sight. And a Wiegand rear sight blade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
